Blood Brothers Burned Out Chip (Where to find replacement?)
I received a Blood Brothers PCB this morning and placed it in my machine to test it.
Less than a minute after I started it up, there a loud pop, and the single inline pin chip at position 2A identified as chip U094 (type LA4460N) burned out, blowing a small hole in the package and sending a puff of smoke into the air.
Does anybody know where I might be able to obtain a replacement for this kind of chip? Most of the chips appear to be from Sony or Yamaha.
Note: The chip appears to have something to do with the sound. The game itself appeared to be unaffected, but the sounds went out when the chip blew.
I also have no idea what caused the chip to overheat. It was very hot when it blew.
{{EDIT: A quick search shows that LA4460N is a sound amplifier chip made by SANYO.}}
